ultralytics 8.3.37

v8.3.37 - `ultralytics 8.3.37` TensorRT auto-workspace size (#17748)

on Python PyPI

🌟 Summary

The release of v8.3.37 introduces significant improvements and fixes across the export functionality and model operation modes, aiming to streamline user experience and enhance performance when using Ultralytics tools.

📊 Key Changes

• TensorRT Auto-Workspace Size: Implements an auto-managed workspace size for TensorRT exports by default, allowing more flexibility and reducing manual configuration errors.
• Label Padding Adjustment: Optimized the label augmentation by correctly updating vertical and horizontal padding, enhancing image annotation accuracy.
• Model Evaluation Mode: Introduced an eval method to easily switch models between training and evaluation modes, ensuring consistent performance during model assessments.
• Documentation Updates: Added video tutorials for better understanding of hand keypoint estimation and annotation utilities, and standardized dataset configuration references for clarity.

🎯 Purpose & Impact

• Ease of Use: Setting the TensorRT workspace to None by default takes the burden off users to configure export parameters manually, simplifying the model export process.
• Improved Accuracy: The fix in label padding ensures accurate annotations, critical for reliable model training and evaluation.
• Consistent Evaluation: By allowing models to switch to evaluation mode seamlessly, users will experience more reliable model performance metrics which are crucial for assessments.
• Enhanced Learning Resources: With new video tutorials, users can gain a deeper understanding of utilizing Ultralytics features, potentially increasing the adoption and correct usage of functionalities.
• Documentation Consistency: Transitioning to a uniform dataset configuration in examples reduces confusion, making it easier for users to follow guides and setups.
